Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
